Colts coach gives Steelers fan Andrew Luck jersey

ANDERSON, Ind. (AP) — Even former Baltimore Ravens are having a tough time letting go of their old rivalry with Pittsburgh.

After Colts safety Tom Zbikowski spotted a Steelers jersey in the crowd at Monday afternoon’s practice, new coach Chuck Pagano took care of the situation. The former Ravens defensive coordinator handed the Pittsburgh fan a new Andrew Luck jersey and jokingly told him to put it on or be escorted out. Not surprisingly, the fan changed.

Pagano said he figured the fan was there to see new offensive coordinator Bruce Arians and new running back Mewelde Moore, both former Steelers.

The new Colts, a handful of whom are ex-Ravens, will get another shot at the Steelers on Aug. 19 when the teams meet in a nationally televised preseason game.
